God wants to father all of us until we're dead sure of his approval, his guiding power and his promise of heaven.

Obeying the Spirit instead of your own self-centered whims will lead you to places you've never been, challenge you in ways you have never been challenged, and invite levels of sacrifice you never dreamed you could make. This is the power and the promise of full-throttle faith, of living a life fueled solely by God.

The more varied the environments in which you exercise your leadership gift, the stronger that gift will become. You will become a far more effective leader.

It's one thing to see a vision; it's another thing to be seized by a vision.

Whatever the capacity for human suffering, the church has a greater capacity for healing and wholeness.

It's a huge responsibility to have influence and to steward it in a way that leads to God-honoring leadership.

One of the greatest joys of leadership is assembling and knitting together teams of fantastic people.
